      I have on several occasions seen sellers on eBay offer kits of stainless allen head fasteners that are tailored to specific bike models. I'm sure they're not super exact... probably have one or two extra, or one or two less, but still... a good place to start. Do the eBay search on "Suzuki hardware kit" and see what pops up.

        I'm in Orange right around the 55 and 91 freeways.

        McFadden-Dale Hardware is on LaPalma Ave around the 91 and the 57 freeway. They are open on Saturdays 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

        Sorry about rattling off on all the sizes used on jap bikes, I have three types in my stable (Honda, Yamaha, and now Suzuki). I did sell off my CZ400MX to make some more room and a restored CB350F I was not riding any more.

            I was able to find some of those kits, including at CRC... How does Zinc compare against SS? See here: http://www.crc2onlinecatalog.com/allen_bolts.htm "Bolts are bright zink plated steel."

              Get in touch with this guy. I bought a set for my GS750 and they look great. All bolts were in kit. Two bolts needed a little trim, but no biggy, I put a nut on, cut it off, cleaned up the end, and unthreaded the nut. Saved alot of hunting and pecking for the various sizes needed, probably better then 8 different lengths required.
